Chapter 701: Liang Jingkang's Visit
"My lord, lunch has been delivered, do you want to eat it now, or will you wait a little longer?" Lord Yuan put down the book in his hand and glanced out the door, the person who came to deliver lunch, he had never seen it, Lord Yuan had only lived here for a day, and he was not so familiar with the people who served in the courtyard.
"Let's send it in first, hasn't Escort Xiao come back yet?" The man was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, but he had already entered the room at this time, and Lord Hara could also feel that this person had no ill will towards him.
"Guard Xiao, the minion really doesn't know, if the adult wants to know, the minion will inquire now." Maybe he was afraid that if he didn't speak, Lord Yuan would be suspicious, so he thought about it for a while and finally said such a sentence.
"Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming to me? I don't go around in circles with you, you just say it. The tray in Liang Jingkang's hand was almost thrown out.
"My lord, I am the one who sent you the note yesterday, for fear that you will not believe it, and I want to come and talk to you today." The identity was revealed, and he didn't have anything to twist, he quickly put down the tray and glanced up at Lord Yuan.
"You wait a while, I'll ask Escort Xiao to come over for a while." Lord Yuan wanted to confirm whether someone was spying on him outside, he and Liang Jingkang were meeting for the first time, and they didn't trust each other very much, so it was better to have Xiao Escort present.
Liang Jingkang didn't stop it, if he could reassure Lord Yuan to call anyone, what Lord Yuan didn't expect was that Liang Jingkang actually sent the letter in person, he wasn't afraid, was Zhao Jiaming see it?
When Xiao Zhong saw someone in the house, he had already guessed what Lord Yuan meant by calling him over, and when he closed the door, he subconsciously blocked the people in the house.
"What's going on? Someone else staring outside? After Lord Yuan saw Xiao Zhong's movements, he was also shocked, the person who delivered the food just now had come in for so long, and he hadn't gone out, would the few people who were staring outside suspect anything.
"When my subordinates went out today, I felt that someone was following, but in the end, I got rid of the people, and I didn't expect that I would come back to monitor the adults, and if you have something to say, it will arouse the suspicion of those people in a while." Xiao Zhong's brows kept furrowing, and he didn't know how to deal with these people who were staring in the dark.
"Hara-sama, you should have already guessed who I am! I am Liang Jingkang, originally the prefect of this Yucheng, because I didn't want to listen to Zhao Jiaming's words, I was finally driven away by him, I have always been unwilling, how can I just forget it? Lord Yuan finally remembered it, no wonder he felt that Liang Jingkang's name was so familiar.
"Since you are the prefect here, how could you be driven away by Zhao Jiaming so easily." After all, it is the prefect of a city, how can it have its own power, how could it be so easy to let Zhao Jiaming get it!
"It's a long story, so I won't talk to Lord Yuan in detail, in short, I fell into the trap he set. In the past few years, I have been collecting evidence of his crimes, and I have met a lot of people who were mutilated by Zhao Jiaming. After Liang Jingkang finished speaking, he directly took out a roll of things.
Lord Yuan felt that his eyelids were jumping very fast, looking at the things on the table, he should know what this was, and looked up at Liang Jingkang, he was indeed a little embarrassed, I don't know, should I agree to this matter.
"My lord, Your Majesty has already replied, saying that he will send someone over and let you take care of the affairs here." At this time, Xiao Zhong suddenly spoke, and Lord Yuan was really startled, this speed was too fast.
He thought to himself that if he did something on the way here, it would not take a few hours for the emperor to know, and since it was allowed by the emperor, where would he not agree.
"Lord Liang, let's leave the things here first, I'll take a good look at it, and besides, we'll start checking after the people sent by His Majesty come over." After listening to this, Liang Jingkang suddenly knelt down at Lord Yuan, and when Lord Yuan saw it, he quickly avoided it.
"I'm here first, thank you for all the wronged people and Tongzhou." Xiao Zhong hurriedly went over to help Liang Jingkang up, he said a few more words and left, before leaving, he didn't forget to take out the tray.
After going out, he seemed to be a different person, looking at the lunch on the table, Lord Yuan had no appetite at all, and he really didn't want to go to this troubled water in Tongzhou officialdom.
"My lord, is it possible that you don't want to take care of the affairs here?" Xiao Zhong saw that Lord Yuan's face was not particularly good, and felt that Lord Yuan should be unwilling to care about things here.
"You don't know at all, how many officials are there in the entire Tongzhou, these people, if they are involved with Zhao Jiaming, there is no way to investigate, and there is also the fact that the water here is too deep, what we can see is just the tip of the iceberg, but this is His Majesty's order, and now it is difficult to disobey the emperor's order."
Lord Hara looked at the things on the table and quickly put them away.
"Otherwise, my subordinates will tell Your Majesty again?" Xiao Zhong also saw that Lord Yuan was indeed quite embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five Supreme, and if you say it, you will be a man, how can you let Your Majesty take back the order? Anyway, it's already like this, so let's take this matter first! While Zhao Jiaming has not yet found out, he must quickly collect some evidence. Xiao Zhong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and Lord Yuan agreed as if he had been driven to the shelves.
After getting along for so long, his heart began to slowly tilt towards Lord Yuan, and he sometimes felt that he shouldn't be like this.
In fact, the people who were staring outside had always felt too bored, because Lord Yuan had been reading books all the time, and they didn't think it was interesting, so they began to be lazy, and when Xiao Zhong went out, they went out to take a look, but they finally lost it.
"The guards around this former lord are indeed not simple, he should be unfamiliar with this place, how can he get rid of the people who follow him?" What they are most concerned about now should be Xiao Zhong.
"I've heard that this Xiao guard is by the emperor's side, and he must be strong in martial arts, otherwise how to protect the emperor, let's honestly report the situation here to the adults, don't provoke this Lord Qincha." Some people started to get scared, for fear that something would happen.
"That's what you said, it's better to talk to the adults quickly." The few people who were left behind were all Zhao Jiaming's henchmen.
